Other Palantiri?

The Palantiri of the Numenoreans were oringinally gifts from the Noldor of Tol Eressea. Over time, they were all lost except for two. But since they were made by the Noldor, did the Noldor exiles in Middle Earth have more Palantiri with them? I can imagine Celebrindor(descendant of Feanor and Lord of Eregion) having one, and Gil-Galad(he would've used it to keep in touch with Elendil) and maybe even Galadriel. At the end of the Third Age Elven Lords like Elrond and Galadriel saw and knew what was happening in much of Middle Earth even from afar. Could this be attributed to Palantir use?
About Elrond and Galadriel:
Quote:
But Elrond saw many things and read many hearts.
and
Quote:
The Lady of the Wood! She read many hearts and desires.
About Denethor:
Quote:
And the Lord Denethor is unlike other men: he sees far.
and
Quote:
He can perceive, if he bends his will thither, much of what is passing in the minds of men, even of those that dwell far off.
I see a link between the first two and the last two lines.
